ror: agreed on all counts. It might be best to wait for Jeremiah to show up in a bargain bin, as joe's scripts this time around contain similar proportions of pandering content. I'll keep an eye out for American Gothic.
sonic, Who's more of the fool. The one who takes the bashing and says nothing or the one who, with out anger, stand ups for him self with alittle defence but with Sarcasim and alittle dry humore. So far I have not even reacted even close to the tone of some of these guys in here. If I do retaliate with my true feelings to there remarks, then I look like a fool. As anyone else in this forum feels, I too am sick of apologizing, but what am I going to do instead?
"Tubboy, stop posting abotu stargate" "Tubboy your stupid" Tubboy your the joke".....
We are all entitled to our own reactions and opinions as RAR has stated earlier. My goal, as I stated in the New year resolusion thread is, Be not such a jerk or asshole on this forum. Meaning, this year is the year Tubboy attempts to mend fences and make a fresh start. Regarding the comments above, well, hey, at least I did not Blow.
Brome. Here is how I look at it. Effort has to be met in the middle both ways. I am pulling my share and meeting at the half point. The bashers need to do the same. Recognize that I am making an effort and see where it leads. This is just a forum. It's not like your risking life and death and you lose nothing by trying.

just because you refuse to reply to the insults, doesn't make you a better person. you're still very annoying. as for making a fresh start...you've done that about 5 or 6 times now...and you're still very annoying. just stop posting threads until you have something interesting to say to the members of this forum. if you want to rave about some lame as TV show so much...start your own forum so you and all the SG fanboys can have an orgy of sci-fi worshipping. stop apologizing, stop posting...just stop.
Ever stop and think that this show has a "Independence day" like feel just like the movie? I watch this show religiously and can't help but see the similarity. Earth is always fighting un winnable battles in the effort to win Galactic independence.

ah cool, I guess that summes up the show then, doesnt it ?!
I don´t really know, I only watched the movie and thought that was stupid and maybe 10 mins of the show, but if Earth is only fighting unwinnable battles (that they through some nifty human trick win in the end anyway) then its not really worth watching now isnt it
I enjoyed Independence Day. I wouldn't say that it sucked. In fact I seem to recall it was rather a large box-office success. It sucked in the punters!
... yeah. Ever looked at the cinema queue for a Bruckheimer-esque event movie on a Friday night? Sucking in shedloads of shrill monstrous fuck-eyed pigmen like that is hardly a "success" ... the sort of people i saw flocking to see Creep this weekend, lured like flies to shit by the trailer that made a tag-line from the classification warning "Contains Strong Bloody Violence". Come friendly bombs, and rain on Warner Village

Well, uh, isn't that the theme of about 95% of scifi shows involving aliens? And about 99% of all games involving aliens? "You are the lone fighter who is Earth's only hope"?
U see, in this episode, Earth installs Rail guns and machine guns on the tower buildings of the city and hte traicer fire you see is good old US artillery.
well give me a bluebox and I´ll call it visuals. Lots of theese shots are simple bluebox shots with little blue dots and explosions in the sky, the images of the city (though very dark ... figure )are allright but not good enough for me to take it as a reason to love STG.
The design of the guns ... come on please, simpel, blocky and uninspired.
Also episodes like that don´t come along all the time, there more season enders or beginners to keep you satisfied.
I don´t want to be slapped 10 times by my girlfriend before I can make love to her
What you just posted still isnt convincing enough for why this series should be good, even with the good old (because ours is really old) Austrian artillery blazing away into the bluebox sky.

Guns are made to kill stuff not to look pretty and simple stuff have less things that can go wrong. Also gun powder powered projectile weapons dont have much room for improvement anyways.
Anyways i rather see plain and simple yet functional guns than some pretty ones that would be as practical as butterknife in combat.
Sure thats what guns are made for, but may I remind you that this is sience fiction (<--- fiction) and they shoot with lasers, not projectile weapons so we are a bit far from realisme here.
Because the purpose of the show is to get people watching and if the whole thing has a cool beliveable futuristic style (wich lasers in a movie <---- movie should be) more people will enjoy watching it.
and on nr.12 it looks like a laser pulse, but thats not the point if they are using lasers, projectiles or oranges.
Its a TV show, "functioning" guns that are not like butterknifes in combat are not essential to them kicking their asses on the screen. It has to look good, and that gun looks stupid
The over all excitement reminds me of ID4 with the wide shot Arial battles. Too bad the video footage of it I got look sort of choppy and for some reason it has this "fraps" logo on top of it. What ever that is.
Anyways, I got theVid from another Sci-fi forum. I can show anyone who is interested. I put it on my site in a zip file. It's QuickTime so I was able to rip it. The weird thing though is that the shots from the images I ripped, some are not in the vid.....ah well, who cares, I cannot wait until this is released on TV.
yes true but every time I use it, Peeps and jokers like to make that apperent and reem me about why i could not include that in the first draft. It's like sometimes you cannot win them all and satisfy everyone.

Why? Why must you push buttons?
you always apologize for some sort of behavior, and then instead of keeping that apologetic tone, you change into a smartass again...
anyways, i never really got into stargate, because it seemed like a sitcom/soap in the future
"Tubboy, stop posting abotu stargate" "Tubboy your stupid" Tubboy your the joke".....

When I asked about pushing buttons, I meant get on peoples nerves.. not push the keys on a keyboard. (Incase that was misunderstood).

Least the gun on foreground on 11.jpg has a clip with bullets.
